The first estimates of
downloads of
Super Mario Runwere published by various firms specializing in
mobile applications. They are all in tune with regard to
the record set by the game for the number of downloads
on iOS within the first 24 hours of availability. Pokémon Go is notably
beaten, while the runner Mario would have already brought in several
millions :
We can still see the game on the App Store at the top of the rankings of
most downloaded free apps and most profitable apps.
This is no coincidence, according to companies like Apptopia, App Annie or
again Sensor Tower, the number of downloads of the game in a single day would have
reached between2.85 and 5 million. App Annie claims that the game
only needed 4 hours to take first place in the ranking of
most downloaded games on the App Store.
For comparison, Pokémon Go, the other crazy success of this year,
it was almost900,000 downloads within 24 hours
which followed the launch, which is more than three times less than Super Mario
Run. On the other hand, the latter was launched on Thursdayin more than 150
pays, while Pokémon Go has been deployed country after country following
server problems (US,
New Zealand and Australiaonly for the first hours of
availability of the game).
Success in numbers, but also in dollars, which was not a thing
obvious, given the model of the game, which offers first levels
freefollowed by content to unlock for9,99
euros via an in-app purchase.
This model would seem to succeed at Nintendo, since according to analysts, Super
Mario Run reportedly reported between4 and 8 million dollars.
For App Annie, it is the most lucrative game in 11 countries around the world.

2 stars out of 5 after over 7,700 votes. We read in the
